I don't think they are likely to happen for a looooooong time. Not until some bright lad figures out why the emergence works. I suspect we'll see 'uplifted' animals first. Or better yet. Gestalt minds.
How would you like to merge your mind with your pet poodle? See what it sees, hear what it hears, etc.
